in thread Using Net::Telnet and Win32::GUI

If perl was compiled with iThreads (and most Win32 binary distributions are), then iThreads are used to emulate fork() on Win32.

I wanted to explore how Perl's closures can be manipulated, and ended up creating an object system by accident.

    You are right in that it appears as though the perl I am using was compiled with iThreads. When I check the configuration summary with "perl -V" I do see "useithreads=define". My next question then is "Where can I find some documentation on how to use it?". There is nothing in the perldocs in regards to it. At least nothing that I can find. I have also poked around on the web and what I do see is sketchy at best. Thanks again......
